Mother Earth

Today as the healing light started radiating out it was moving in a new and different way - traveling uniformly, very far at great speed. 

At first, I wasn’t sure where it was going and it was hard to pinpoint a location. After a few moments, I realized that this was because the light just kept going and going and going and was wrapping around the entire planet. The movement of the light today beneath the surface in the soil was like a giant wave, pulsing out in every direction at once, lighting everything up as it went. Once it had spanned and enveloped the entire globe, the healing light suddenly turned inwards and started moving down through all of the layers of earth and soil, rock and bedrock, past the crust into the mantle. Then still it kept traveling through all of the layers of the mantle, towards the outer core. 

As this was happening, I had an extraordinary and deeply felt sense of being this minuscule, virtually invisible speck on our planet. As if I was looking down on our mother earth and my tiny place in it from out in the atmosphere. No longer was this a mental, conceptual exercise, as I had imagined many times before throughout my life. As the full depth of the felt experience landed, for a few moments, I faltered. My physical mind kicked in and started doubting; how I could possibly help our Mother Earth this way, or any other way, just me like this, being so infinitesimally small? The healing light paused. I realized I needed to refocus, empower the need, mission and vision once more and surrender back deep into the Temples. As I did, I felt my Temples voice shrug my concerns off completely in a very matter-of-fact way, and direct me gently, firmly, and clearly, to “Just keep going.” 

The powerful flow of healing light resumed and kept traveling down and inwards, now close to reaching the inner core. It felt like everything in its path was gathering sustenance and support, enlivening and strengthening. Just before the light reached the outer edge of the inner core, I felt a saturation point being reached and the words, clear as a bell from our Mother Earth, “Thank you, child.” My heart and whole body experienced a tremendous shift. In that same moment, I felt a shift deep in the earth, like a sigh, release, and expansion. Mother Earth started radiating and witnessing back, her light surging upwards and outwards back towards the surface in every direction. I stayed in a state beyond words, tears welling up in my eyes, for a long time.
